January 2012.
Matt introduced me to an artist called Marion Deuchars, who produces some really lovely hand drawn type which I really really like. I am getting really into using inks and watercolours to create hand painted lettering and type; experimenting with different sizes, creating shapes and mood within the text.
An illustration of Robert and Susan Erskine, married for 75 years. I hand painted type to go with each illustration I produced for my book about 100 year old people.
Hannah Waldron works with a variety of different mediums such as printmaking, weaving, and ink. I really like her approach to each material and process, it interests me as a big part of my interest and practice lies with combining illustration and making by using different processes and materials.
It is interesting that there is no text within Rain Day and feels appropriate as the illustrations speak for themselves. I like her use of ink, type and colour.
